  • This is deliberately not supported to avoid the many compatibility nightmares that arise from doing just that. You should develop any unique features you need in your own separate addon using just your own code.

  • Many mobile devices warm up when they're working hard. It's normal and affects any kind of software. For example playing Pokemon Go made my Android phone get pretty warm (and that of course was not made in Construct). A lot of CPU/GPU activity dissipates heat; it's a pretty fundamental aspect of computer hardware.

    Generally optimising the entire game, both in CPU and GPU terms, will help, but so long as the device is having to work moderately hard over long periods of time, you can expect the device to get warm. That applies to all software using any technologies on pretty much any hardware (even desktops warm up too, but they tend to have fans to help, and you tend not to be holding it in your hand!)

  • I genuinely don't understand the problem here.

    You just need to update your team to the latest version all at the same time. Problem solved.

    In all your posts, you haven't given any reasons why that wouldn't work. So I'm just completely mystified as to why you are still asking about this.

    As I said: people who stay on old versions routinely run in to all sorts of bugs, compatibility issues, performance pitfalls and other problems that we've already fixed. This needlessly increases our support burden as people end up filing issues and contacting support about problems which were already solved. This wastes everyone's time, and is particularly painful for us as a small team with already very limited resources. We want to avoid that, so we auto-update everyone, and I think we have an extremely good track record with backwards compatibility.

  • Press F12 and check for any errors in the browser console.

    Try checking your Internet connection is working properly, clear your browser cache and try again.

  • When an update comes out, just tell your team to all update.

  • The solution is for everyone on your team to update at the same time. That's all you need to do.

  • Try Construct 3

  • What you're describing is essentially the same as saving a project in r225, and then opening it in r218. That's never been supported. Of course you can't use mesh distortion in r218 - the feature does not exist in that release.

  • Updating Construct does not affect the use of GitHub or any other source control tools. I need to understand exactly what has happened to be able to comment further or provide any help.

    For example, if you're seeing conflicts on source control, updating Construct does not cause that. Those are actually caused by submitting contradictory changes. That's a different type of problem. Even if Construct completely changed the project file format, that in itself does not cause a conflict on source control. You just need to submit an update which makes the necessary changes, and make sure it doesn't conflict with anyone else's changes. But in this case, Construct has not changed the project file format at all. So even that is not a problem here.

  • Correct, there is an issue for those that are using C3 Desktop. And it's a big one.

    And what is the problem exactly? I still don't know what the specific problem is that you're talking about.

    FYI there were also stable releases in late April, June, August, September, and now November.

  • We work hard to ensure a very high degree of backwards compatibility. Updates should never break projects. In fact you can open up projects made years ago, even with Construct 2 in 2012, and open them fine in Construct 3. If anything breaks, please file an issue following all the guidelines. As far as I'm aware, such breakages are very rare, and are usually corrected quickly.

  • In your original post you stated there was "a huge issue" in "c3 Desktop", and asked that "that this will be eventually looked into". It sounded like you were saying there was a big problem in C3 and asking for help, so I tried to find out more.

    As far as I can tell, all that's happened has been a routine stable release exactly as we've been doing for years and years. I don't think there's anything more I can add.
